Stocked with all you need for a stay in Nevada’s cowboy country, Hilton Garden Inn Elko has the traveller musts covered: well-kitted guestrooms, complimentary WiFi, a heated indoor pool with whirlpool, a fitness centre, and the option to dine without having to leave your hotel. If you do decide to head out, you’re near downtown Elko, half a mile from casinos, and a few miles from the convention centre and ‘western’ attractions like Northeastern Nevada Museum and Western Folklife Center. But it’s the great outdoors that attracts most visitors: with the Ruby Mountains promising hiking, biking, fishing, and snow sports. If you return too late for the Great American Grill’s stateside treats or evening room service, you can always hit the 24-hour Pavilion Pantry for late-night snacks and ready meals to cook in your room.

Beautiful property
Oct 7, 2020Pam SFair Oaks, California
We stayed one night and were very impressed with the property - large, clean room and well priced! The restaurant was only open for lunch and dinner so we didn't get to try it out. Breakfast was not served due to covid restrictions, but they offered a "bag to go" which we delclined. We will stay here again for sure!
Glad it was only one night

Should have trusted the first impression of the very rough opening front doors. The staff in the evening was pleasant and welcoming. The room smelled clean. Then... the bathroom... single ply toilet paper, not enough towels, and the shower head was stuck on massage. That’s not great when you’re trying to wash your face. As we were leaving the…

Should have trusted the first impression of the very rough opening front doors. The staff in the evening was pleasant and welcoming. The room smelled clean. Then... the bathroom... single ply toilet paper, not enough towels, and the shower head was stuck on massage. That’s not great when you’re trying to wash your face. As we were leaving the morning clerk rudely asked me to place my cards in the basket, not on the counter. I had to ask about the “breakfast bag” the clerks the night before had told us about. She seemed very put off that she had to give up the bags. “Breakfast bag” means an apple, water and granola bar. We would always stay here on the way back from my sisters house when it was the Hilton. I don’t think we will anymore.

Decent hotel
Sep 28, 2020Rena0109San Ramon, California
We’ve stayed here twice. Location is outside of town. Restaurant in hotel. Bag breakfast. Beds are very firm. Had a noisy guy above us who was awake at 4:15 getting ready for work. Elko has a lot of mine and road workers that stay. Frontage road gets busy early so stay on the south side. Reasonable rates.
The name sounds fancy, the style looks fancy, but it was in fact, not fancy!

We stayed here for a few days – never again! While everything seemed fine at first, we quickly realized it was not. While I understand they’re apparently not done fixing/remodeling the hotel, our stay was far from good.

We stayed here for a few days – never again! While everything seemed fine at first, we quickly realized it was not. While I understand they’re apparently not done fixing/remodeling the hotel, our stay was far from good.
This is a former Hilton property, and while that wouldn’t normally be something we would notice nor care about, there were remnants from its former namesake on the dial plates for phones in the room, and I even got an email from Orbitz telling me that the “Hilton Garden Inn Elko sent you a realtime conversation notification”, really you couldn’t even change all your info properly with Orbitz?
While the exterior of the hotel and lobby looked nice, that was the extent of the remodel that we saw. Our room was gross. I say that because – the carpet in our room was stained in several places, and the room had a light smell of mildew. The tub faucet leaked, and moved around because the caulking around the base at the wall was missing. The shower head was DISGUSTING! It had so much water/calcium deposits on and inside of it, that several of the holes were clogged. The toilet seat was loose and almost came off in the middle of the night. The A/C made a loud thudding noise when we turned it on, and the front air intake cover was falling off. There was some sort of food stuck on the seat cushion of the chair. The desk had an oily residue all over it. The floor lamp behind the chair was going to fall apart if I used to much force to turn it on. And the beds were uncomfortably hard, and there was a noticeable sagging of the mattresses on the side of the bed that is next to the nightstand, so clearly haven’t been replaced in quite some time.
A couple of minor inconveniences were that the ice machine on the second floor (our floor) didn’t work. We asked the front desk about it and they said it was out of order because they were waiting on a part, yet they hadn’t put up a sign indicating that it was out of order, nor was there one placed there before we left. Also, the ‘view’ out of our room was of the hotels satellite dishes, and a few a/c units on top of the lobby area. Because of COVID-19 they offered a cold version of the continental breakfast which was fine. We were told it was a juice, bottled water, two granola bars, & fruit or a muffin. However, there was no fruit, they didn’t have any juice, so it was just a bottle of warm water, & on the second day they’d run out of muffins. I get that it wasn’t a full continental breakfast because of the pandemic, but don’t say that it’s going to be certain things, and then not properly prepare to have those things in stock for paying guests during their stay.
Also, on our first day when we were leaving around 9am, we walked by the business center and there was a man in there on a computer, eating and drinking. When we came back later that day around 5pm, we noticed that there were food packages and an empty water bottle sitting on the counter in there. Like seriously? I mean the guy should have cleaned up after himself, but you guys couldn’t get someone to clean this up?
The only positive thing was that the staff were friendly, but being friendly doesn’t excuse the poor condition of the hotel, lack of proper food planning and quality of the guest experience.
Overall, we weren’t expecting the Ritz, but this place was ridiculous. At this point, I would NOT recommend this place to anyone.

Terrible Bed
Sep 17, 2020Gail GBarcelona, Spain
We stayed here one night on route from SLC to SF. We had a king bed on the first floor and the bed was terrible -- really! I did not sleep well and neither did my husband. I cannot recommend this hotel. Also, this hotel is not a Hilton Garden Inn.

Payments are being prioritised based on when the request was made, working in order from March 2020 onwards. We will always try to process refunds at the earliest opportunity, for requests before August our maximum timeframe is 120 days. As we are steadily reducing the maximum processing time for each new request, for refund requests made in August, we expect the maximum processing time to be 80 days, from the date the refund is requested. For those requesting a refund in September, we expect it to be processed within a maximum of 60 days, and then reduce to 30 days for refunds requested in October, before returning to normal levels.
To finalise the amendment, one of our customer advisors will phone you. We need to work through amend requests in departure date order so we can prioritise those with the most imminent travel plans, so you may have a longer wait than usual until we’re able to ring you back. We will help everyone that wants to move their holiday.
